Windows 10: My computer won’t do a clean windows 10 install.

I few days ago I decided to install a fresh version of Windows 10. After only having my new pc for a month I started getting blue screens when trying to open game applications or logitech applications. I would blue screen about 5 times in a 3 hour gaming/browsing seesion. So, I download the media creation tool. Run through the process of dumping it onto a fresh USB flashdrive. Stick it into my PC and make sure its the first thing it boots into. Once the installation starts it runs to about 10% or 50% I get this error code 0x8007025d. I’ve tried reformatting the flashdrive to Fat32 as recommended on some articles I read and even fully wiped my M.2 drive. Is there anymore options I have to install windows 10?! Please Help ME ASAP!

I have a AMD Ryzen 3700x, 16gb 3200mhz DDR4 Ram, Asus Rog Strix B450-F Motherboard, Samsung 970 Evo 1TB SSD, and a EVGA 2070 Super FTW Ultra. All about a month and a half old.

Clean Install Workaround for Vista

You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:

• Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
• When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
• Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
• When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
• This time enter your product key
• When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
• Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it

Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.

Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

I have bought a legit "Windows 10 Pro" key of a key website. It is legit since i'm currently using it for over a year now. I currently have Windows 10 Pro installed on my PC and I want to do a clean install. I just can't find the windows 10 Pro download in the tool. But if i could use a windows 10 pro key with a normal windows 10 install, I'll be good to go.
